For a school project, Alexis Gallo, a student at NYC’s Fashion Institute of Technology, created a wacky typeface that is modelled on Jell-O and inspired by one of Salvador Dali’s most iconic artworks.

The idea for the “Form” typeface came from Dali’s famous melting clocks in The Persistence of Memory—based on the Futura font, Gallo crafted the letters out of Jell-O to achieve the “floppy and unstable” quality she desired.

“Form references the consistent flux of time with a playful spin. The letters feel inconsistent and have a gravitational pull that appears uncontrollable and unstable. Each letter has a melting quality that gives the impression that they will slip off the baseline.”

Stanislas Giroux’s out-of-focus fireworks look like something out of a dream sequence. Inspired by “old-school filmy light trails that occurred on old non-CCD cameras when a bright light spot was filmed”, he tinkered with the focus ring of his camera while shooting fireworks with a tripod to achieve the ‘bokeh’ effect. The result is glowing lights that swim in and out of focus in an ethereal light-show.

I don't think it was designed to be played on planes as much as it was to get VA attention on youtube.

Stop, created by choreographer Susan Marshall, is a music video featuring an original score by Pulitzer prize-winning composer David Lang, played by members of the electric guitar quartet Dither and Mantra Percussion. Stop is a virtual companion piece to Susan Marshall & Company's new dance performance Play/Pause, which will tour the US this fall. Stop references the dance moves and sleek production value of popular music videos, but introduces abstraction by adding choreographic complexity, and stripping away context to make the dancers' movements the primary element.
